The PFE is the latest development from Fairford Electronics, who have 25 years of experience producing innovative designs in the soft start market.

With ratings from 2.2kW to 22kW, the PFE is ideally placed to support any AC induction motors in use today.  This makes the PFE the natural choice for distributors and customers alike.

Benefiting from Fairford’s excellence in engineering, the PFE combines the quality and reliability you have come to expect.  This is one product that ticks all the boxes.

Features and Benefits

Internally Bypassed

Reduces cost because the Soft Starter is out of circuit once it has done its job. This reduces cabinet size and the heat produced which again reduces cost. 

Over Current Protected

Protects the Soft Starter against use above its duty rating.
